Carriacou scuba diving - a reason for your vacation
The scuba diving in Carriacou is pretty good. Its name, originally written Kayryouacou apparently, reputedly meant 'Island of Reefs' and the island is surrounded by them. The island is set in shallow water with a sandy bottom and so the visibility and the colours are good. But because there is relatively little pressure from fishing, the fish life is also good. Dive sites include the offshore islands in Hillsborough Bay, Mabouya, Sandy Island and Jack A Dan, where there are good corals and fish in relatively shallow waters, but there are also sites to the south of Carriacou, around Saline and Frigate Island. This is more advanced diving because of the currents from the open sea, but the corals and fish are spectacular. The best dive operator is Carriacou Silver Diving, t 443 7882, based on Main Street in Hillsborough. In Tyrell Bay consider Lumbadive t 443 8566, a Beuchat dive centre, and Arawak Divers, t 443 6906.
